We have added some fields for grading hard drives beyond the default smart parsing.
The result of the smart health shows up as a green, yellow, or red health icon, next to the disk:
The smart health icon will be green if there are no issues with the smart health.
It will turn yellow, as above, when:
- There are any number of reallocated sectors, pending sectors, uncorrected sectors, or growth defects
- The temperature has gone above the threshold
- The smart health reports as "Warning"
- The disk will not respond to a smart command.
It will turn red if:
- Any attribute is failing now
- Any attribute except for temperature has failed in the past
- At least one test has failed
- The smart health reports as "Failure"
- The available spare is lower than the available spare threshold (NVMe specific)
We have added customization that add more conditions to the yellow and red states:
- Grade A bad sector threshold
- Grade A Power on threshold
- Grade B bad sector threshold
It works like this: If a disk has less than the Grade A bad sector threshold AND less than the Grade A power on threshold, it will be green. If it has more than either of those, it will be yellow. The above failure conditions will still turn the icon red.
If a disk has more than the Grade A thresholds but less than the Grade B thresholds, it will be yellow.
If a disk has more than the Grade B threshold, it will be red.
